Guest host Sophie Bushwick talks to Dr. David Gunkel, professor of media studies at Northern Illinois University, to explore the ways in which humans and artificial intelligence form emotional connections.

OncotargetPress Release: Group of Genes That Cause Endocrine Resistance in Breast Cancer Identified ...BUFFALO, NY- June 8, 2022 – A research paper was recently published in Oncotarget, entitled, “A novel group of genes that cause endocrine resistance in breast cancer identified by dynamic gene expression analysis.”
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common type of cancer diagnosed in women. Among female cancer deaths, BC is the second leading cause of death worldwide.
For estrogen receptor-positive (ER-positive) breast cancers, endocrine therapy is an effective therapeutic approach. However, in many cases, ER-positive tumors become unresponsive to endocrine therapy, and tumor regrowth can occur after treatment. While some genetic mutations contribute to resistance in some patients, the underlying causes of res...
